Hachiman: "Sakayanagi, Do You Believe in Luck?" Ryuuen, You're Suspended for a Week! (Continued)

Hirata is standing on the side of believing in his classmate, but Hachiman also believe in Sudō?

This made Hirata feel very gratified.

However.

That's not actually the case, because Hachiman witnessed what happened.

Therefore, he knew perfectly well that Sudō had indeed been tricked and was forced to defend himself.

But you can't say things like that right now.

The video footage shows that Ryuen from Class C did indeed have something in mind, and now that intention has become clear.

Despite using violence, Ryuen boldly applied for a trial with the Student Council, practically challenging the school's rules.

Because.

Generally speaking, it's unrealistic for Sudō to fight three people when he's all alone.

This is also the thinking of ordinary people.

However, the fact that Ryuen was able to present it to the Student Council shows that he had made some preparations that were enough to convince the school that Sudō had gone too far by hitting three people in a row.

Such behavior is very likely a dirty trick.

In order to achieve his goal, Hachiman felt that he might have to hurt himself sometimes.

However, Ryuen's actions are somewhat similar to his, yet also different.

He is a dangerous person.

Class rivalry doesn't necessarily have to be fair and square, but if the other side is that dangerous... then the only option is to take down Ryuen from Class C first.

The question is, how do we pull them? They've already deliberately self-destructed, so let them explode.

Then, Hachiman looked at the others.

"Let's find eyewitnesses to Sudō's fight," Hachiman said analytically. "If there are witnesses, perhaps we can prove Sudō's innocence."

And this point.

Sakura, still sitting in her seat, propped the book up and then cautiously looked at Hachiman.

Um.

She remained silent.

This one is very well-behaved.

But.

"That's a good idea," someone immediately responded.

Looking over, Hachiman saw a person who quickly responded to him with a beautiful golden ponytail and lovely features; this was Kei Karuizawa.

Of all the girls Hachiman had seen at this school, she was probably the second cutest.

"..." It turned out to be Karuizawa had been on his list of grudges before.

Karuizawa probably dislikes him too.

So I don't understand what Karuizawa is trying to do.

She actually cooperated with him.

Since it was break time, most of the students were still in the classroom.

So, I thought that if Sudō got into a fight and points were deducted, all of everyone's efforts would be ruined, and next month's living expenses might not be much left.

This is really bad; nobody likes eating that awful mountain vegetable set meal.

So, you want money!

However, the only way to generate revenue is through the class evaluation scores assigned to each student by the school.

Once my allowance is reduced to zero, I won't have any living expenses next month.

How terrifying that is.

Having experienced terrible food and extravagant spending, the students dared not even imagine having nothing next month.

In this way.

Now, although Sudō's matter has come to pass.

But if someone proves that Sudō acted in self-defense and not in a fight, then wouldn't he be innocent?

So, what are everyone's class evaluation scores?

In this way.

Although they said it was for Sudo's sake, they also wanted to help themselves, so the students of First-year Class D, began to scatter everywhere to find witnesses.

However, that doesn't seem to be enough.

Student Council.

The Student Council President is on duty.

"So, you want to apply to use the bulletin board for recruitment information?" said Student Council President Manabu Horikita.

Just like the last time he came, Manabu Horikita was followed by Akane Tachibana -senpai.

However, there was also a handsome Vice President Nagumo with short blond hair in the office.

As before, the other party still had a sign on their desk that read "Vice President Nagumo".

Whenever a student comes to the Student Council, they will pay attention to the past.

Having been at the school for some time, Hachiman also knew that the Vice President's name was Miyabi Nagumo. According to information obtained from Kushida, he was not a student in Class A, but rather a former student in Class B who led his class to successfully advance to Class A.

He is an outstanding and successful person.

No wonder he's so flamboyant.

According to Chabashira-sensei, even among students from Class B, there are very few who have successfully challenged Class A.

And.

The other person is a sophomore, which means they achieved the feat of getting an A in their freshman year.

Thus, Nagumo climbed the ranks and obtained a place in Class A. At the same time, he was valued by the Student Council President Manabu Horikita, who invited him to join the Student Council and offered him the position of Vice President.

Only.

However, Hachiman also discovers that the Vice President is not only Nagumo, but also a second-year student named Kiriyama.

This senior, Kiriyama, was a former student of Class A who was defeated by Nagumo. Logically, the two should be rivals, and Kiriyama was also Nagumo's defeated opponent. So why was Kiriyama invited in addition to Nagumo? And why was he also the Vice President?

Therefore...

Is Horikita being tolerant, or is there something in the Student Council that needs to be balanced?

But let's deal with the immediate problem first.

"Yes," Hachiman said, and he went to the Student Council with Hirata.

The goal is singular: to pay points to trigger the Sudō fight and find eyewitnesses. If an eyewitness is found and willing to testify, a certain number of points will be awarded in return.

Since the trial is next week, we need to do everything we can this week.

We must gather the strength of the entire class and even the entire school to find eyewitnesses!

"Um, Student Council President, I think Sudo from my class is innocent, and it doesn't make sense for one person to fight three people," Hirata quickly said. "So there might be some misunderstanding."

"You'll have to wait until next week's court hearing to defend him," the Student Council President said calmly.

"Is that so?"

Despite being rejected by the Student Council President, Hirata did not give up.

So he voluntarily paid some points in the hopes of finding eyewitnesses to the fight. He posted this information on the bulletin board.

And of course, this will incur a fee.

However, Hachiman knew very well that such a search was meaningless.

Because he and Sakura are witnesses.

But Sakura is a good and well-behaved classmate, so she won't come out if you don't let her.

All of this was done to demonstrate the efforts that First-year Class D were making to address the situation.

However, while taking notes, Hachiman noticed that the Vice President of the Student Council's expression seemed somewhat subtle.

"Is there something you need, Senior Nagumo?" Hachiman asked.

"Heh...no." Nagumo shook his head. "It's a total of 20,000 points. Scan the QR code here."

But he seemed to be secretly laughing.

Yes, I think so.

Because something else has happened in Class D. First, Hachiman broke the camera, then he printed the entire grade's roster in order to make friends, and now he's fighting three people by himself.

It can be said that Nagumo witnessed all three incidents.

Then he wanted to just shake his head.

This year's freshmen are hopeless.

Nagumo thought to himself.

However, this effort is not yet completely over.

And the next day.

When school ended in the afternoon, Hachiman asked Kushida to invite Honami Ichinose out.

The reason is simple: Ichinose is the representative of Class B, and now that Class D is in trouble, Ichinose, as a partner of the BD alliance, naturally has a duty to help.

This is also a test of the alliance between the two classes.

Therefore, Ichinose's network of contacts also came into play.

Searching for eyewitnesses to the Sudō incident.

In this way.

First-year Class D went to great lengths to help Ken Sudō, doing everything they could.

But.

I feel extremely helpless.

Because no eyewitnesses were found.

There were no security cameras in the Experimental Building where Sudō got into a fight. So everything fell into the worst possible state.

Thus, the time came to the day before the trial.

Private dining rooms on the third floor.

"Thank you for the hospitality," Hachiman said.

Today's lunch was treated by Classmate Sakayanagi. The set meal cost 2200 yen. Normally, students wouldn't eat something that expensive, but Sakayanagi-san has money.

And it was something she agreed to.

And.

Hachiman didn't think the meal was a freebie.

Because.

"So, since you ate my food, Hachiman, it seems your class is currently embroiled in a courtroom brawl," Sakayanagi Arisu said. "Could you tell me about the progress?"

"It would be a bit of a shame if you all fell like this," Banyan said. "After all, I just declared war on you, and now I'm about to be checkmated."

The students of First-year Class D set out to find eyewitnesses to Sudo.
